Responsibilities


As a Knowledge Expert (KE) and Team Manager within BCG's Social Impact Practice Area, you will be a central member of a fast-growing and entrepreneurial global team that is core to BCG's purpose, values, and ambition of becoming the most positively impactful company in the world.

We aspire to deliver impact on the world's greatest challenges while building a sustainable business for BCG.

You will work together with Health Equity and Global Health case and proposal teams to provide knowledge assets, analysis and expert advisory, as we strive to make health care more accessible to promote healthy lives for all.

You will collaborate closely with business leaders, acting as a thought partner in providing advice and client-credible insight, for proposals, client work-shops and commercial campaigns in the Health Equity sector; driving the development of intellectual property, go to market materials, and publications.

Additionally, as a Knowledge Expert and team manager, You will manage and develop a Knowledge Team to deliver against the Practice Area's broader business priorities (beyond health equity) and be accountable for the team's KPIs on billability, work quality, and topic content development spanning the topic coverage of each team member.

Health equity is achieved by eliminating disparities in health and its determinants—by granting everyone the opportunity to "attain his or her full health potential".

Health inequities are reflected in outcomes – including length of life, quality of life, rates of disease, severity of disease, access to treatment, and disability and death.

Health inequity exists between and within countries.

BCG's Health Equity work spans the entire healthcare ecosystem (public and private payers and providers, Aid agencies and NGOs, Foundations, Med Tech and BioPharma companies), in both Lower- and Middle-income markets and developed markets.

We strongly believe that health equity is not only a necessity and moral imperative, but also a unique opportunity to unlock commercial advantage.

As an example, we partnered with a leading global BioPharma company to create a global non-profit unit with the aim to provide access to 30 essential medicines in 40 lower- and middle-Income countries.

BCG has a heritage and a commitment to Social Impact working at the intersection of private, public and social sectors.
